Abstract (en)
A simulation device (1) for simulating an operation of a system constituted by a plurality of machines such as robots, at low cost. An operation program is executed by an arithmetic processing unit (6) in a controller of a machine or by an information processing device having a function of analyzing the operation program equivalent to the controller of the machine, to obtain operation command data for the machine. The obtained operation command data of the machine with lapsing time information are received by the simulation device (1) and stored as historical data. Operation programs of all of the machines constituting the system are executed to obtain historical data of operations of all of the machines. The collected historical data are united by arranging the data in time series from a start of simultaneous operations of the machines based on the lapsing time information. Images (7,8) of three-dimensional models of the machines are displayed by animation based on the united historical data of the system to simulate the operation of the system. It is not necessary for one arithmetic processing unit to execute the operation programs for the plurality of machines at a time, so that the simulation device (1) is provided at low cost. <IMAGE>
